Two Things I Wish I Had Today…
I normally take public transportation downtown and then walk about 20 minutes to work. I always wear tennies and a sweatshirt. Today, however, I stepped out of my house clad in Steve Madden leather ankle boots and my bright blue down puffy jacket (vintage J.Lo, circa 2003) to shield me from the cold. It wasn’t raining when I left, so I figured I’d be fine for the walk.
I was wrong.
Since the jacket was way too hot to wear zipped while city-walking, and the too-big, faux-fur trimmed hood completely obstructs all vision, I stomped to the office, jacket unzipped and no hood on my head to shield me from the elements and save my up-do. One man, who happened to be holding the biggest umbrella I’ve ever seen IN MY LIFE, smiled at me as I eyed his colossal rain-roof while trying not to slip. He must have felt guilty.
I arrived to work, soaked with rain and sweat, my hair dripping, boots and purse spotted with droplets. I was sporting the “wet look” from head to toe, and it was not cute.
Two things I wish I had today: an Uplifting Umbrella and some Groovy Golashes.
